EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of modern living in the 1930s, as showcased in these stylish blocks of flats nestled on Putney Hill in south west London. The sleek, geometric lines and clean, minimalist design of the buildings are quintessential of the Art Deco movement that swept through Europe and North America during this era. The use of brick and white stucco in their construction adds to their distinctive character, while the lush greenery that surrounds them adds a touch of natural beauty. The flats, with their large, rectangular windows, were designed to maximize natural light and provide residents with spacious, airy living spaces. The flat blocks were a departure from the traditional Victorian houses that dominated the area at the time, offering a more contemporary alternative for those seeking a modern way of life. The hillside location of the flats also provided breathtaking views of the River Thames and the surrounding countryside, making them an attractive option for those seeking a desirable place to call home. The 1930s were a time of great social and economic change, and these modern flats represented a new way of living for many Londoners. They offered affordable housing for the growing middle class, and their communal facilities, such as shared gardens and laundry rooms, fostered a sense of community among residents. Today, these historic buildings continue to stand as a testament to the enduring appeal of modern, functional design and the desire for a better way of life.
